Joshua 16

1 And the borders of the children of Joseph were from Jordan by Jericho eastward; and they will go up from Jericho to the hill country, to the wilderness, to Baethel Luza.

若瑟的子孫抽籤分得的土地，從耶利哥對面的約旦河起，到耶利哥東面的水源，沿著曠野，由耶利哥向上到貝特爾山區，

2 And they will go out to Baethel, and will proceed to the borders of Achatarothi.

再由貝特耳路次，沿著阿爾基人的邊境，直到下貝特曷龍的邊境，以迄於革則爾，直達於海邊邊境

3 And they will go across to the sea to the borders of Aptalim, as far as the borders of Baethoron the lower, and the going forth of them shall be to the sea.

這是若瑟的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。

4 And the sons of Joseph, Ephraim and Manasse, took their inheritance.

這是若望的兒子默納協和厄弗辣因分得的產業。

5 And the borders of the children of Ephraim were according to their families, and the borders of their inheritance were eastward to Ataroth, and Eroc as far as Baethoron the upper, and Gazara.

以下是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的土地：他們產業的邊界，東面是阿塔洛特阿達爾，直到上貝特曷龍，

6 And the borders will proceed to the sea to Icasmon north of Therma; they will go round eastward to Thenasa, and Selles, and will pass on eastward to Janoca,

直達於海。北端是米革默塔特，由此向東轉向塔納特史羅，越過雅諾亞東部，

7 and to Macho, and Ataroth, and [these are] their villages; and they will come to Jericho, and will issue at Jordan.

再由雅諾亞下至阿塔洛特和納阿辣，經耶利哥直達約旦河。

8 And the borders will proceed from Tapho to the sea to Chelcana; and their termination will be at the sea; this [is] the inheritance of the tribe of Ephraim according to their families.

又從塔普亞往西到卡納谷，直達於海：以上是厄弗辣因子孫按照家族分得的產業。

9 And the cities separated to the sons of Ephraim [were] in the midst of the inheritance of the sons of Manasse, all the cities and their villages.

此外，屬默納協子孫的產業中，還有給厄弗辣因子孫保留的城市──城市和所屬的村鎮。

10 And Ephraim did not destroy the Chananite who lived in Gazer; and the Chananite lived in Ephraim until this day, until Pharao the king of Egypt went up and took it, and burnt it with fire; and the Chananites, and Pherezites, and the dwellers in Gaza they destroyed, and Pharao gave them for a dowry to his daughter.

但是他們未能將住在革則爾的客納罕人趕走，因此客納罕人直到今天還住在厄弗辣因人中間，充當苦役。
